Hi,
I currently am trying to deploy an ovf onto an esxi machine. The ovf is currently located on the destination esxi machine.
Here is the command I was trying to use:
.\ovftool "https://<ip address>/folder/group1/Win7-5/Win7-5.ovf?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=datastore1" vi://user:password@<ip address>
group1/Win7-5/Win7-5.ovf is the is the location of the ovf within the datastore.
When I try to execute this it has the error:
Error: Could not open URL https://<ip address>/folder/group1/Win7-5/Win7-5.ovf?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=datastore1 (response code 404)
If i open up the vsphere UI and go through the deploy ovf wizard using
https://<ip address>/folder/group1/Win7-5/Win7-5.ovf?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=datastore1 (same as above)
as the location of the ovf file it works fine.
If anyone can help me i would greatly appriciate it. I searched all over and couldnt find an answer anywhere else and couldnt figure it out when looking at the docs. Sorry if this is a repeat post.
